We were all created to love and be loved.

I got this in an email from my aunt. It's such a sad story but the message is so powerful...

USED VS. LOVED

While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 year old son picked up a stone and scratched lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man took the child"s hand and hit it many times; Not realizing he was using a wrench. At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures.
When the child saw his father...with painful eyes he asked, "Dad when will my fingers grow back?" The man was so hurt and speechless; He went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times.
Devastated by his own actions...sitting in front of his car he looked at the scratches. The child had written "LOVE YOU DAD."

The next day the man committed suicide...

ANGER and LOVE have no limits; choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely life....things are to be used and people are to be loved, but the problem is that, people are used and things are loved.

-WATCH YOUR THOUGHTS; THEY BECOME WORDS.
-WATCH YOUR WORDS; THEY BECOME ACTIONS.
-WATCH YOUR ACTIONS; THEY BECOME HABITS.
-WATCH YOUR HABITS; THEY BECOME CHARACTER.
-WATCH YOUR CHARACTER; IT BECOMES YOUR DESTINY.

Think before you act! You never know what the consequences may be. You shouldn't put your belongings over the ones you love because everyone has the ability to love but objects do not. We're all meant to love each other. The objects put before us may seem like the most amazing things ever but we can't treat them as if they have feelings and we can't treat people like they're empty inside because you never know how your actions can really affect someone.
